Cloud Kicker might just have the wildest life of any pony in Equestria. That may just be why Princess Luna wants Twilight Sparkle to study the insanity that is Cloud Kicker's life for a sociology report. Unfortunately for Twilight Sparkle, she is going to have to survive the circle of jealous friends, paramours, enemies, crazy co-workers and disappointed family members that surround this crazy pony. Will Twilight Sparkle be able to complete this assignment before it spins out of control, or will she be reduced to a neurotic mess?

Could have used another read through before posting but otherwise...fun little story. I think my favorite part was when Twilight tried to change the subject from the potential disaster of two elements of harmony dating....to Applejack and Rarity.

I also look forward to seeing how Twilight ends up getting assigned to studying Cloud Kicker, since she seems determined to not write the princesses about...this...oh. my. god. Is this you trying to tie into the chapter of Winning Pony with Luna?! Is THAT why Luna wants her to study Kicker? Because she's INTERESTED?! ... you magnificent bastard.

A guy of my stature should not twinge like a scared dog during a viewing of <episode goes here; Winningies will know the one>. Winningverse is to blame.

It's going to take me days to get that raw-nerve reactionary twinge outta my system, and then TLATOAWP will update and my emotions will be flayed again, repeating the cycle. And I'll read it, cause it'll be more than worth it. It's been muddlin' whole tracts of my headcanon. It's makin' for a whole chunk'o' tangent headcanon.

-stepping outside the "totally incomprehensible...craze" I revel in for a moment...-

Yeah, I'd really recomend TLATOAWP, on its merits that it's freakin' brilliant, than goes on to display something even more. Not many fics really sink their teeth into you to the extent or depth that Life and Times does. On merit of that alone does Study of Winning look to have excellent prospects, and this first chapter gives a solid perfomance up to what could be expected of it. Will follow this with keen expectations.

“It wouldn’t look good for the local weather manager to beat down her newest assistant weather manager, but don’t think I won’t do it if you cross the line.”

Dat foreshadowing

Haha, going from not knowing why she should feel worried, to being on the verge of a panic attack, in a matter of seconds. That's our Twilight.

...adorkable is too a word... *mutter*

This has much potential! We already know how good Cloud Kicker teasing Blossomforth can be. Adding in Twilight promises a touch more prudishness, a tad less embarassment, and a whole heckuva lot more nerdy overanalysis. Looking forward to the next chapter.

Wait, this was approved by Chengar? WOW, I just had to read to this...and it was splendid! This is really good, and I seriously can't wait for the next chapter. I'll give you a watch and a fav...and since I'm feeling generous, I'll give you a thumbs up too.

Yep, this is my very first story, and I hope everyone enjoys it. I plan on one heck of a rollcoaster for all of this in true Winning Pony Fashion. Chenger and Comma have given me a huge amount of help also.

Twilight does tend to not think things when she is on the panicked side of things. Poor Twilight is looking at potential disasters to both her left and right at the moment.

Maybe… But I will say Twiligth getting her assignment will be covered in the next chapter. Also that I plan on fully revealing all the facts involving Luna and Cloud Kicker by the time the end credits roll. Luna may or may not have plans…

Yep, the Winningverse even has its own group page now. I would highly recommend reading The Incredibly Dense Mind of Rainbow Dash, and the Life and Times of a Winning Pony. They are both great stories in their own right, and the latter runs more or less concurrently with Study.

Cloud Kicker is a background pony for the show who Chenger has given some... personality to with The Life and Times of a Winningpony. If you haven't read that story I highly suggest it. Cloudy is all over the place in the show, and if you have a bunch of background ponies in the background, you can pretty much count on her being there.
